I can't think of too many songs I like that were recorded in 1968.

I think it's a matter of taste, more than anything else.

If my dog is okay? I dropped him off at daycare to learn to socialize and get along with other dogs. Maybe he’ll become more adept than his mother (me)?

My employer knows I have autism now and the whole ordeal felt oddly... embarrassing.

Not me telling I have autism or having it in the first place, just the whole conversation with my colleague and my supervisor offering support on how they could help me have a better experience at work. While I appreciate their well intentions, I explained to them that nothing has changed as I'm still the same person I've always been and to make it even clearer, I don't need any special treatment as I would've told them earlier.

Heck, the whole reason this situation took place in the first place was because I randomly decided to share I had autism as explanation for why I was standing a certain way unbeknownst to me that was obstructing my colleagues. It immediately made me remember why I wouldn't share it in the first place as everyone, although it's nice that they did, took it more seriously than necessary.

What an uncomfortable shift, I was not ready for that conversation at all, glad I don't have any shifts the coming days!
